Riley Huffman '26 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

Growing up split between two households, I found soccer to be my constant comfort. I played softball briefly from the age of 4 until 6, but then I found my passion in soccer and have been committed to it at a daily level ever since.

I am now interested in playing collegiate-level soccer while earning a bachelor’s degree in Marine Biology or Business. I am highly motivated to achieve success in both soccer and academics, as evidenced by my current 4.0 GPA and current roles playing ECNL 08 with Charlotte Independence Soccer Club and ODP South Region Team. My work ethic was clearly shown when despite living well over an hour from the CISC practice facilities, I attended practice and gave my all without fail 4 times a week. In my ECNL season 21-22, I finished with the most field goals at 11 and 12 assists; I had 3 penalties created as well.
